Barefoot reporting in on Monday morning. Fireboy is in the driveway with the dogs and cat blowing the horn .. guess that is my hint that my time in TV is over. > I just read what I wrote (it's early) and the cat is not blowing the horn.

Special thanks to Samhass for Thursday night, Beady for Sat night, and Nonie and Chels for Cassadaga and Sunday brunch. :bigthumbsup:

All the members of TOTV that I've met have been gracious, warm and wonderful. Through the magic of this website, I will be able to stay in touch with all my friends no matter where we are.

Goodbye, it's been wonderful. ::

I remember back when I was young and in my 20s and 30s. We partied hearty every weekend, looked forward to it, and had some really good times. Whew, those were the years but nowadays I get tired thinking about them.

As I look at my May calendar, I notice we have a party every weekend but one. Not the kind of parties we had 20-30 years ago, but parties none the less.

The graduation and birthday ones will be fun but the one I'm looking forward to is the "wild game" bbq. That one is always interesting and we never know what will be on the menu.

Maybe I should make some batches of monkey and gorilla drinks...would go along with the theme.

Have a safe trip, Barefoot. Before you know it, you'll be at your computer back home, and writing about your adventures, getting back to Canada. Can't wait to be able to say these things in person..............

Have a safe trip to Canada, Barefoot, Fireboy, the dogs and of course the horn blowing cat.
Time will fly and you will be back in TV before you know it. And maybe by then we can get there at last. I'm counting on lunch at Crispers your first months back! wav wav wav wav

Hi all,

My computer needs to be repaired. Will only be on line at odd times, if I can get a computer. Have a great couple of weeks .

Will miss all of my Sistahs.

I am back in Canada, wearing snowshoes. Just kidding, we are having a heat wave, it is in the 70s.

I am desperately missing TV and everyone I've met. I'm trying to be a brave barefoot and enjoy my time in Ontario. My mother always said "Don't wish your life away" .. and now I know exactly what she meant. The years are flying by; and I am getting old at a startling rate. So I don't want to wish that the next six months in Canada would fly by.

So I'll just sit in the hot tub at the cottage, dreaming of golf carts, streets lined with gold, people dancing every night, and all the wonderful TOTVers.

When the leaves start changing colour, I'll be heading back to TV!

Thanks y'all for all the good wishes.

Will miss seeing you walking around the big field and the big dog area of Doggie Doo Run Run, Barefoot at Last. I stay in the small dog section because my chihuahua/terrirr mix-- Sport-- got bit going to the big field early August 2007 by a dog named Jesse James. He has trouble around bigger dogs still.

I won't wish your or my life away, BF, but it will be wonderful when you and Fireboy get back down here. The good thing is the 6 months will be over before you know it.

The TOTV gatherings will be missing a spark of sunshine without you.

Tal, I miss the Dog Park so much, I just loved it there. Especially the swing in the back acreage. I went there every day for the past six months. I bet if my dogs could talk, they'd be saying "Take me back to TV!"

Dee, thank you for the kind thoughts. You have no idea how much I envy you being able to be there full time. Ah well, I'm lucky to even have winters there. I just miss the hell out of TV!
